Voice 2: Experts in the 1970's carried out a study in Britain. They wanted to find out about how British people felt. They asked people to describe their general emotional state. The experts found that thirty-four percent of people described themselves as happy. They repeated the study in the late 1990's. This time only thirty percent of British people claimed to be happy.
聲音2：上世紀(jì)70年代，專(zhuān)家在英國(guó)進(jìn)行了一項(xiàng)研究。他們想知道英國(guó)民眾的想法。他們讓英國(guó)民眾描述自己的基本情緒狀態(tài)。專(zhuān)家發(fā)現(xiàn)，34%的人稱(chēng)自己很快樂(lè)。他們?cè)谏鲜兰o(jì)90年代又進(jìn)行了一次調(diào)查。這次只有30%的英國(guó)人稱(chēng)自己是快樂(lè)的。
Voice 1: The wealth of the country improved during this time. So the result surprised a lot of people. But the experts were not surprised. They said that this is a common problem in western societies. Extra wealth fails to bring extra happiness.
聲音1：在這段期間，英國(guó)的財(cái)富增加了。因此，這一調(diào)查結(jié)果令很多人倍感驚訝。但專(zhuān)家并未感到意外。他們表示，這是西方社會(huì)普遍存在的問(wèn)題。新增財(cái)富沒(méi)能帶來(lái)額外幸福。
